The Wish that Wasn't Wise🧚🏽🔥| A Classic English Fairy Tale for Kids

Join us for a cozy fairy tale adventure! This week we're sharing "My Own Self," a classic English fairy tale adapted from Joseph Jacobs' beloved collection. A curious young boy's wish to meet a fairy comes true—but discovery brings an unexpected lesson about magic, consequences, and knowing when *not* to repeat a wish. Perfect bedtime story for kids who love fantasy, folklore, and gentle surprises.
